By the end of the webinar, participants should be able to:

• Understand age-related physiological changes and comorbidities that affect sedation planning and safety in older patients.
• Identify risks and assess suitability for various sedation modalities in frail or medically complex older adults.
• Apply practical strategies and tips for delivering safe and effective sedation to older patients.
